7 Signs You're Ready To Go Back To College

The end of summer used to be a depressing time when you were younger, but the thought of moving back into a dorm with your best friends and experiencing everything your campus has to offer has you actually looking forward to summer being over! Here are some of the telltale signs that you’re more than ready to be back on campus:


1. You find yourself looking forward to classes starting because it means actually having something to do.


On days where you’re stuck at home with nothing to do, the thought of homework doesn’t seem all that bad.

2. Back to school shopping gets you excited.


I can’t be the only one that gets excited walking into Target to get new school supplies! And of course, going back to school is an excuse to buy tons of new clothes.

3. You've been texting your roommates daily telling them how much you miss them.


After three months of not living with your friends, you start counting the days until you get to see each other again.

4. You started planning your dorm room decor in June.


Let’s face it, starting college means Pinterest becomes your life.

5. You've slowly been starting to pack for the past two months.


Or you’ve been living out of boxes since you moved back home to avoid having to do it all again.

6. You get visibly more excited when your family asks if you’re ready to go back to school.


With so much to look forward to, how can you not be?

7. Binge watching Netflix doesn’t sound quite as exciting as it did three months ago.


Now that you’ve had all the time in the world to catch up on your favorite shows and finish new ones, you’re ready to return to your campus’ busy atmosphere.

Having a break from the stress that comes with college is nice for a while, but there are definitely more pros than cons of going back and getting closer to whatever you’re working for. Here’s to a great school year!

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
